We chose this cruise because the itinerary included three ports of call that we had not previously visited. This factor coupled with no 'days at sea', which we do not particularly enjoy, made this package very interesting despite some earlier reviews that were not overly positive.
The embarkation process was very smooth both at the airport and the port. The last thing anyone needs, after a long flight, are delays and queues, this process was one of the fastest and easiest we have experienced.
The ship itself was well maintained, both inside and outside. Staff cleaning and painting the external parts of the ship in port and others, with portable hoovers, cleaning the inside areas. The only disappointing issue was that some passengers found it acceptable to dump rubbish on the floors.
